Photography captures a moment in time. It is a creative process as much as painting or writing and has the power to communicate the meaning of a scene or event. Photography is simple to learn yet at the same time challenging to execute. Learning the finer nuances of photography is based on three key aspects - Light, aesthetics and focus. Understanding these three aspects forms the basis of expressing yourself effectively through photography.

If this is an example of 'good' American photography I must say we did it better in Russia. The focus is off and this Hillary person is very boring while also being hideous. Am I missing something? This is a standard throw-away photo no?

even if this is photo-shopped it is so lovely! and you are correct, this is an example of fine photography and, dare i say it, art! it is every bit as 'cutting edge' and 'worthy' as mapplethorpe's fisting photos and 'piss christ' by that really famous douchebag...

seriously though, i have to agree with anonymous that you are an asshole. i mean, the old adage applies does it not? who better to judge an asshole than the primo asshole of all assholes, the anonymous troll. i'm afraid you stand condemned my friend. i still love you brah. (thank goodness though, that you are at least a few centimeters away from hillary).

Nah, 911, but Hilary wasn't that bad back in the 60's if you're into the Hippy look. Bill Clinton married her, so she must have been into sex at that time. I'm a little bummed this weekend, just found out Winona Ryder is playing Spocks human mom in the Star Trek movie out next year, and not a pointy eared Vulcan chick.

I'll read it...but I am pretty sure it won't take on a different meaning. To the first anonymous responder to this post...go drink a double-tall-skinny-no-whip-decaf-mocha you homemade-granola-eating left-wing no-one's-feeling-should-ever-get-hurt liberal pile of Seattle horse shit. Can't believe I ever lived in that liberal fucking hell-hole. You and yours should be forced to live in the world you propose...living on Lake Washington after cashing out Microsoft and pretending to care about the 'poor and oppressed' as you write a few tax-deductible checks sitting on the dock drinking watermelon martinins. Worthless fuck.

Lofty, were you my dad in a prior life? (Switching to Andy Rooney voice) Juh ever notice women really hate the word "Cunt"? You can have a tough nosed hooker, she slapped Al Capone and ran guns for Castro, but call her the C-word and she cries like Luci Ricardo. Why is that? Its like kryptonite with superman.
